402 Bantam Lake Rd, Morris, CT 06763

Imagine a home with 120 feet of lakefront overlooking Connecticut's largest natural lake and designated a Heritage Lake in recognition of the water's recreational value. Walk into the classic, old world charm of a Greek Revival with a double staircase entry, 10 rooms consisting of 4 bedrooms, a study/ music room, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, vaulted living room, dining room, sunroom and family room. Step onto an elegant, columned portico, walk through the house and onto an expansive wrap around deck 10 feet from the lake. Three separate sleeping areas (two private suites plus 2 bedrooms and bath on first floor) make it perfect for either a family or friends vacationing together. Look forward to gathering on portico, deck or living room or retreat to smaller gatherings in family room, sunroom or music room. Home in small association with docks, small beach, tennis court and basketball/ handball court and playground. Our lake house welcomes guests to the comforts of a boutique hotel in the freedom of a private home with all the modern amenities. The Wise Owl is a vintage lake house beauty where you can relax, unwind and listen to the birdsong. Start the day with a cup of coffee and watch the sun rise over the lake. Skip a stone, take a swim, canoe or kayak, paddle out, fish, ski, indulge in the natural beauty and as the beauty of the day turns to evening bask in the lake's light and star gaze at day's end. Experience some of the most highly acclaimed Connecticut restaurants, world class fishing, four season water sports, largest wildlife refuge in Connecticut (4000 acres) with 40 miles of hiking trails, a wine trail with a unique collection of wineries and vineyards, orchards and farms, a distillery, award winning bakeries, cafes, best ever ice cream, antique shops, world class racetrack, luxury spas and historical Litchfield at your fingertips.
